Abstract

The thermal regime during the autumn-winter seasons plays a decisive role in cold acclimation and survival grapevine in cold climates. This study aims at assessing the time variability of the thermal regime during dormant season, between 1961-2021, in the Hills of Craiova vineyard and its potential implications on the grapevine, especially regarding its acclimation to cold and its vulnerability to frost. The following observations and analytical data were used in order to assess parameters and indicators with negative thermal stress potential: minimum and maximum temperature (daily, monthly averages), absolute maximum and minimum monthly temperatures, the duration of frost (days), the frequency of several low-temperature thresholds and the temperatures preceding frost episodes.
